"We're young. We're educated. ... We're gone."

David Wharton reposts a comment from the kind of couple Greensboro has been trying desperately to attract and keep. I'm skeptical that the kind of urban planning they advocate would make a huge difference, even as I acknowledge a personal taste for it that I picked up during my 18-month exile in New York two decades ago. But it probably would help at least a little, and given the success of the city's Southside project, it's at least worth discussing.
